Back-up slides World Economic Forum 24
"More leaders have been made by accident, circumstance,sheer grit or will, than have been made by all the leadershipcourses put together.Leadership courses can only teach skills. They can’t teachcharacter or vision, and indeed they don’t even try. Developingcharacter and vision is the way leaders invent themselves." Waren Bennis On Becoming a Leader World Economic Forum 25
"Minds at Work" methodologyRobert Kegan’s Adult Development Theory Self-transforming mind Self-authoring mind Socializing mind World Economic Forum 26
Stage 3: Socializing Mind• Can: reflect on the concrete to reason abstractly and think hypothetically, internalize the feelings of others, orient to values and ideas that are important to them and identify with the values of a group to which they are loyal, draw their source of authority, self-assessment from external sources• Can not: reflect on or critique assessments, values or group positions with which they are identified, mediate conflict between external authorities, take responsibility for their internal reactions to others Self- transforming Self- mind authoring Socializing mind mind World Economic Forum 27
Stage 4: Self-Authoring Mind• Can: generate their own (and develop critiques of others‟) values, commitments, and assessments, set limits or boundaries on relationships or commitments where necessary, tolerate or welcome disagreement with important others, take responsibility for their inner lives• Can not: reflect on or critique their own ideologies or governing theories of self and leadership Self- transforming Self- mind authoring Socializing mind mind World Economic Forum 28
Stage 5: Self-Transforming Mind• Can: reflect on their own and others‟ belief systems or ideologies to identify larger patterns orient to the dialectical or paradoxical, welcoming contradiction and oppositeness, understand their own selves and leadership identities as always revisable, evolving Self- transforming Self- mind authoring Socializing mind mind World Economic Forum 29
Monitoring psychological development• An ongoing study to identify level of psychological development in individuals• Encouraging results from the pilotFindings: • Level of improvement somewhat exceptional compared with total body of research: Everyone who went through the 3 years programme made a progress, i.e. "moved up" towards the stage 5 • Fellows need a maturity at level 3 with some evidence of attributes of level 4 in order to succeed at the ForumNext steps: • Compare individuals‟ psychological development stage (external assessment) with their performance on the job, leadership potential and career progression after 3 years World Economic Forum 30
